Randy’s Free Pick
I’m not running to the window to back either of these teams, but Utah Tech is playing the better ball right now and is at home, where it wins by an average of 11.1 points. The Seattle Redhawks don’t cover numbers, and they lose by an average of 8.6 points as underdogs. Utah Tech is a favorite for a reason, I guess. I’ll lay the bucket.
